"It's clear we're one Step away from a financial meltdown," said Nouriel Roubini , chairman of the consulting fum RGE Monitor. The meetings that begari Friday night were a who's who of financial heavyweights: Treasury Secretary Hank Paul son, Timothy Geithner, president of the New York Fed , Securities and Exchange Commiss ion Chairman Christopher Cox, and a host of CEOs, including Vikram Pandit of Citigroup Inc., Jamie Dimon of JPMorgan Chase & Co., John Mack of Morgan Stanley, Lloyd Blankfein of Goldman Sachs Group Inc .• and Merrill Lynch & Co.'s John Thain . For 1111 their efforts, Lehman appeared ready to file for bankruptcy. The end of Lehman may not stop the, financial crisis that has gripped Wall Street for months, analysts said. More investment banks could disappear soon. The independent brokerdealers "are goinp the way of the dodo bird ,' said Bert Ely, an Alexandria , Va.,based banking consultant. · That's partly because some of \he firms , particularly Merrill, made bad bets on real estate. But several analysts &ai d that inve stment companies will need the deep pockets of commercial banks to survive the next few years. On Sunday, there was also an emer~ency trading session bemg held . at the International Swaps and Derivatives Association to "reduce risk associated with a potential Lehman Brothers Holding s Inc . bankruptcy." The ISDA , which arranges trades for derivatives. sa id it Was · allowing customers to make trades and unwind positions linked to Lehman. Roubini said it's difficult to accurately gauge the hea1H1 of companies like Merrill because their financial health depends on how they value complex securities. As a result , their finance s aren't very transparent. he said. That can lead to a loss of confidence in the' financial markets, he said, which can .. overwhelm an investment bank even if it is financially healthy by some measures . "Once you lose confidence, the fundamentals matter less ," he said. The common denominator ' of the financial crisis , ·analysts said. is the bursting of the housing bubble . Home prices have dropped on average 25 percent so far. · Roubini predicted they could drop another 15 percent. . The crisis has begun to slow the broader economy as banks make fewer loans and consumers have begun cutting spending. Many economists are now fore- ' casting that the economy could slip into recession by the .end of this year and early next year. That, in turn , could cause additional losses for commercial banks on credit cards. auto loans and suident loans. ' The Fed is widely expected to keep interest rates · s.tead)' at 2 percent, below infl ation , when it meets ·Tuesday. It was possible , however, that the central bank might decide in coming weeks to cut rates if such a move is seen as needed to calm turbulent financial markets .

Trea, ury 's refusal to tary headquaners at Camp Victory on the western outskirts of Baghdad . Petraeus' counterinsurgency strategy has paid off in lraq ,where the number of auacks ,has dropped to its lowest point in more · than four years. But he will face a new challenge wit~ violence ri's ing in Afghanistan. It will be a delicate balancing act to tackle a resurge nt Taliban enjoying refuge in the lawless border areas of Paki stan without losing ground in Iraq. "We've got a situation in Afghanistan where clearly there ha ve been trends headed in· the wrong direc· lion ;· Pet rae us said. "Milit;try action is absolutely .necessary but it is not sufficient." "Political. economie and diplomatic aeli vity is critical to capitali ze on gains in the security arena," he said . The 55-year-old general assumed control of U.S. forces in Iraq about 19 month s ago after President Bush ordered some 30,000 additional American forces to Iraq as part of a so-called surge aimed at stopping spiraling Sunni-Shiite sectarian violence. The reason for the dec Iine in violence is hotly debated. but the U.S. mili,tary cites the troop buildup, along with a Sunni revolt that saw former insurgents turn against al ·Qaida irf Iraq and a Shiite militia cease-fire ordered by a strifoe dent American Muqtada ul-Sadr. Petraeus also acknowledged the military's dual role . calling U.S. troops " builder' and diplomats as · well as g u ;~rdi an s and warriors·· in hi s farewell letter posted · on the military 's Web site. "The progress achieved has been hard-earned," he wrote. "There have been man y tough days along the way, and we have suffered tragic losses. Indeed, nothing in Iraq has been anything but hard ." Petraeus stressed it was premature to discuss strategy but suggested he will carry over lessons from his playbook in Iraq - including possible outreach to try to bring hostile pl ayers into the political process. Pet'raeus, however, stressed the ultimate decision to reach out to militants would be up to the Afghan government. "We did reaffirm in Iraq the recognition that you don't kill or capture yo ur way out of an industrialstrength insurgency ," he said . ''Clearly there are socalled irreconcilables who must be killed or captured or run out of the country," he added. "But reconciliation with some of those who are currently part of the problem and making them part of the solution is something that I know is being · examined as•an option." Bush announced last week that one Marine battalion and one Army brigade would be shifted from Iraq to Afghanistan thi s fall and winter - far .fewer than the I0,000 troops U.S. comm anders there had requested. Meanwhile, about 8,000 U.S. troops will be withdrawn from Iraq by February. · George Friedman, the head of Stratfor, an independent intelligence risk assessment agency based in Austin , Texas, said Petraeus faces a more organized enemy in Afghanistan with the Taliban and must consider reaching out to them along with tribal chiefs. " He 's struggling with the question of limited forces and a political climate that's much different than Iraq," he said. "But it's imposs ible to imagi ne how the United States can create an Iraqi style solution without the Tali ban because they're getting stronger every day." Petraeus and other military leaders have consistently warned that the security gains in .Iraq are reve~sible and need co ntinued U.S. attention - a point underscored by persistent bombings that bear the hallmarks of Sunni insurgents . And while security gains have been remarkable, the Iraqi government has largely failed to take advantage of the calm to make political progress. Church events Friday, Sept. 19 , .

"It's clear we're one Step away from a financial meltdown," said Nouriel Roubini , chairman of the consulting fum RGE Monitor. The meetings that begari Friday night were a who's who of financial heavyweights: Treasury Secretary Hank Paul son, Timothy Geithner, president of the New York Fed , Securities and Exchange Commiss ion Chairman Christopher Cox, and a host of CEOs, including Vikram Pandit of Citigroup Inc., Jamie Dimon of JPMorgan Chase & Co., John Mack of Morgan Stanley, Lloyd Blankfein of Goldman Sachs Group Inc .• and Merrill Lynch & Co.'s John Thain . For 1111 their efforts, Lehman appeared ready to file for bankruptcy. The end of Lehman may not stop the, financial crisis that has gripped Wall Street for months, analysts said. More investment banks could disappear soon. The independent brokerdealers "are goinp the way of the dodo bird ,' said Bert Ely, an Alexandria , Va.,based banking consultant. · That's partly because some of \he firms , particularly Merrill, made bad bets on real estate. But several analysts &ai d that inve stment companies will need the deep pockets of commercial banks to survive the next few years. On Sunday, there was also an emer~ency trading session bemg held . at the International Swaps and Derivatives Association to "reduce risk associated with a potential Lehman Brothers Holding s Inc . bankruptcy." The ISDA , which arranges trades for derivatives. sa id it Was · allowing customers to make trades and unwind positions linked to Lehman. Roubini said it's difficult to accurately gauge the hea1H1 of companies like Merrill because their financial health depends on how they value complex securities. As a result , their finance s aren't very transparent. he said. That can lead to a loss of confidence in the' financial markets, he said, which can .. overwhelm an investment bank even if it is financially healthy by some measures . "Once you lose confidence, the fundamentals matter less ," he said. The common denominator ' of the financial crisis , ·analysts said. is the bursting of the housing bubble . Home prices have dropped on average 25 percent so far. · Roubini predicted they could drop another 15 percent. . The crisis has begun to slow the broader economy as banks make fewer loans and consumers have begun cutting spending. Many economists are now fore- ' casting that the economy could slip into recession by the .end of this year and early next year. That, in turn , could cause additional losses for commercial banks on credit cards. auto loans and suident loans. ' The Fed is widely expected to keep interest rates · s.tead)' at 2 percent, below infl ation , when it meets ·Tuesday. It was possible , however, that the central bank might decide in coming weeks to cut rates if such a move is seen as needed to calm turbulent financial markets .

Trea, ury 's refusal to tary headquaners at Camp Victory on the western outskirts of Baghdad . Petraeus' counterinsurgency strategy has paid off in lraq ,where the number of auacks ,has dropped to its lowest point in more · than four years. But he will face a new challenge wit~ violence ri's ing in Afghanistan. It will be a delicate balancing act to tackle a resurge nt Taliban enjoying refuge in the lawless border areas of Paki stan without losing ground in Iraq. "We've got a situation in Afghanistan where clearly there ha ve been trends headed in· the wrong direc· lion ;· Pet rae us said. "Milit;try action is absolutely .necessary but it is not sufficient." "Political. economie and diplomatic aeli vity is critical to capitali ze on gains in the security arena," he said . The 55-year-old general assumed control of U.S. forces in Iraq about 19 month s ago after President Bush ordered some 30,000 additional American forces to Iraq as part of a so-called surge aimed at stopping spiraling Sunni-Shiite sectarian violence. The reason for the dec Iine in violence is hotly debated. but the U.S. mili,tary cites the troop buildup, along with a Sunni revolt that saw former insurgents turn against al ·Qaida irf Iraq and a Shiite militia cease-fire ordered by a strifoe dent American Muqtada ul-Sadr. Petraeus also acknowledged the military's dual role . calling U.S. troops " builder' and diplomats as · well as g u ;~rdi an s and warriors·· in hi s farewell letter posted · on the military 's Web site. "The progress achieved has been hard-earned," he wrote. "There have been man y tough days along the way, and we have suffered tragic losses. Indeed, nothing in Iraq has been anything but hard ." Petraeus stressed it was premature to discuss strategy but suggested he will carry over lessons from his playbook in Iraq - including possible outreach to try to bring hostile pl ayers into the political process. Pet'raeus, however, stressed the ultimate decision to reach out to militants would be up to the Afghan government. "We did reaffirm in Iraq the recognition that you don't kill or capture yo ur way out of an industrialstrength insurgency ," he said . ''Clearly there are socalled irreconcilables who must be killed or captured or run out of the country," he added. "But reconciliation with some of those who are currently part of the problem and making them part of the solution is something that I know is being · examined as•an option." Bush announced last week that one Marine battalion and one Army brigade would be shifted from Iraq to Afghanistan thi s fall and winter - far .fewer than the I0,000 troops U.S. comm anders there had requested. Meanwhile, about 8,000 U.S. troops will be withdrawn from Iraq by February. · George Friedman, the head of Stratfor, an independent intelligence risk assessment agency based in Austin , Texas, said Petraeus faces a more organized enemy in Afghanistan with the Taliban and must consider reaching out to them along with tribal chiefs. " He 's struggling with the question of limited forces and a political climate that's much different than Iraq," he said. "But it's imposs ible to imagi ne how the United States can create an Iraqi style solution without the Tali ban because they're getting stronger every day." Petraeus and other military leaders have consistently warned that the security gains in .Iraq are reve~sible and need co ntinued U.S. attention - a point underscored by persistent bombings that bear the hallmarks of Sunni insurgents . And while security gains have been remarkable, the Iraqi government has largely failed to take advantage of the calm to make political progress. Church events Friday, Sept. 19 , .

He's right where he belongs. For months, Fuld . 62. thought the firm he has worked at since he left college could outrun the credit storm rather than deal with its consequences. That mi splaced bet is puni shing · Lehman now, leaving it teetering on the edge of collapse unless it can find a bank or other investment firm willing to, resc ue it. That may depend on whether Lehman' s potential white knight can persuade the government· to provide some backing - the. way it did to case the ~.-ale of Bear Stearns in March - and that may be a long shot. It didn't have to be this way. Lehman's stock price did·n't have to be down 90 percent this year. It dido 't need to be tallying losses of about $6.9 billion in the last two quarters. It shouldn't be des perately searching for life preserver. Then! is no denying that the current credit crisis is unprecedented .

Cleveland fmally got 1ts · offense going and crossed mtdf1eld in the final two mmutes of the ftrst half. But with a chance to tte 11, the Browns bungled away thetr first scortng opportunity Inside Pittsburgh's 20, they fumbled a snaP. and were called for an allegal shift Referee Tony Corrente explamed that the Browns had the opuon of having 10 seconds run off or bemg charged wath thetr fmal hmeout. Cleveland elected to have the t1me taken off, leavmg them with 44 seconds. Anderson completed a 9yard pass to the 12, and Cleveland's QB quackly sneaked for a first down before the Browns called their fmal turteout with 8 seconds left.
